    For the TouchPad on/off, BT on/off, WiFi on/off?

    If so, its the ATK0100 ACPI UTILITY I believe.

    I'm guessing its an Registry error, something must of been removed that shouldn't, or some kind of corruption.

    I think the best way to fix, would be a reformat. That or a system restore!

    Are you using the drivers from the CD or from the Asus site? You might have to uninstall the ATK0100 utility from Add/Remove programs and reinstall it from the Asus site (if it's new)

    i'd be more inclided to blame asus and their lowsy support for HControl and the ATK driver. HControl is failing because it's not a robust program. I wish if they're not going to properly support functionality (i.e. allow manual assignments of buttons) or maintain a robust platform that they'd provide the source code.

    By installing the old one, it will rewrite the new one.
